  • More locations announced! We're bringing US documentary maker Peter Byck and his 'Roots so Deep' documentary on a first-time tour of Australia and you're invited to a screening + live Q+A 🎟️ This is an opportunity to learn from the experience and science in a large scale grazing experiment funded by McDonalds. This study was the most comprehensive holistic comparison of time control grazing and continuous grazing ever done and compared 5 pairs of properties across the US. The film provides a captivating summary of the science, the outcomes and the journeys of the people involved.   There will be three key events 🌱 - Monday 10 Feb: ACMI Federation Square, Melbourne, with special guest Jade Miles - CEO of Sustainable Table. - Sunday 16 Feb: Coal 'n' Cattle Hotel, Moura, Queensland. - Wednesday 19 Feb: AgriFutures evokeAG Sideshow event at State Library of Queensland, with special guest Jo Sheppard - CEO of Queensland Farmers' Federation. This event will also be livestreamed Australia-wide. We encourage you to invite neighbours, staff, family and friends as everyone is welcome! Get tickets: https://lnkd.in/e7aF7tA4 #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilHealth Carbon Cowboys | Thanks also to support from RCS Australia, Brisbane Economic Development Agency

  • Congratulations to all new board members, including CarbonLink Chief Operating Officer Chris Mccosker. The work of the Group will be instrumental in bringing together land managers, industry leaders, and Government to ensure soil security and a safe, sustainable climate for all. 🌍

    The Soil Carbon Industry Group (SCIG) has elected a new board to steer the innovative transformation of soil carbon in Australian agriculture. The election took place at the recent Annual General Meeting in Canberra. Attendees at the AGM also participated in a World Soils Day event in Parliament House hosted by Michael McCormack and Meryl Swanson Co-chairs of the Parliamentary Friends of Soil and Soil Science Australia.   The incoming board members are: Chris Mccosker – Co-Chair Louisa Kiely – Co-Chair Hamish Webb – Company Secretary Su-Mei S. – Treasurer Chloe Kempe Ben Barlow Phil Ireland Philip Mulvey   SCIG, the peak body for soil carbon industry stakeholders, continues to promote alignment and innovation in carbon farming. The new board, with experienced industry leaders from diverse backgrounds, will drive initiatives to boost soil carbon measurement, monitoring and management to crediting.   The 2021 Soil Carbon Method is the fastest-growing method in the Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) scheme. Measurement, monitoring, and management were the themes of this year's World Soils Day. Because of physical measurement at the project level, the 2021 Method is regarded internationally as a high-integrity market mechanism for climate action.

    As part of the National Sustainability Festival program of events, we're excited to bring US documentary maker Peter Byck and his 'Roots so Deep' documentary on a first-time tour of Australia - starting with ACMI, Federation Square, Melbourne on 10 February. With nearly 100 million views worldwide the documentary seeks to bridge the gap between traditional and regenerative agriculture; in doing so, it's creating a movement towards sustainable farming practices viewed from both sides of the fence. Peter will be joined by Dr. Terry McCosker OAM for a discussion that contextualises the film’s themes for the Australian farming landscape. The welcome and Q+A will be facilitated by Sustainable Table CEO, Jade Miles. Together, they’ll explore challenges, opportunities, and the resilience needed to secure a sustainable future for farming families nationwide. This thought-provoking event is a must for anyone passionate about agriculture, sustainability, and the future of Australian farming. This is a 'pay what you want' event, starting from $5. Everyone is welcome. Get your tickets now! #NationalSustainabilityFestival #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilHealth Carbon Cowboys

    It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the CarbonLink Brisbane office! We’ll be closed from 21 December - 5 January. We’re grateful for your continued support this year and look forward to working with you in the new year.

  • Our Chief Scientific Officer, Robert Crossley, recently spoke at the NZ Society of Soil Science and Soil Science Australia joint conference - #SoilsRotorua2024 - alongside Senani Karunaratne from CSIRO. They discussed Minimum Creditable Change (MCC) - a statistical measure to report the capacity to measure soil carbon changes in the landscape for a sampling program using the Australian Soil Carbon Crediting Methodology. Well done both! 👏

    Chief Scientist at Carbon Link

    I was so encouraged to see so many papers presented on the function of the soil biology and its influence on the pathways of soil carbon sequestration at the joint NZSSS and SSA conference in Rotorua last week, and in particular the fate of root exudates, a source of low molecular weight organic carbon that is commonly simply discounted as being inconsequential. Also of note to me was the improved understanding and acceptance of the practices that could be considered regenerative, and the work being done on the influence of clay and iron hydroxides on soil carbon sequestration. The soil biological processes are an area of science that has been ignored or treated superficially in the soil carbon models that are often used to make claims about soil carbon sequestration. I can undertand this as we simply don't understand the processes enough to be able to model them using process models. We don't even know what metrics we need to measure to be able to model those process. In my opinion, it has been a major failing of my generation of soil scientists as there was substantial interest and research in this area prior to when we did our studies, but was completely ignored by our lecturers and subsequently by my generation of soil scientists. Or maybe I just missed that lecture. But if I had of been aware of just how much effort plants put into feeding the soil biome, I would have felt compelled to try to understand what was the ecological advantage for plants to do this. Now with the advances and reduced costs of DNA profiling, and the focus of our bright young minds on this area, we might be able to make some long overdue progress in our understanding, and maybe gain insight into the science behind what we can see happening in agriculture under regenerative practices. I believe that in 10 years time, this generation of researchers will look back at how we currently think we understand the processes of soil carbon sequestration and shake their head at the cognitive bias that our generation has shown on this subject. But this is an old soil scientist that hopefully will still be around to cheer you all on. I hope I can contribute meaningfully to the progress by improving our ability to measure the changes.

    We couldn't agree more with the message for #WorldSoilDay - in fact, it's been our motto for years. We began began with a vision to bridge the divide between traditional and regenerative agriculture, and improve soil health for Australian farmers. It's our mission to educate, enable and support producers to measure, manage, monitor and monetise their carbon farming potential. 🌱 Improved biodiversity and microbiology: we know that just one key benefit of increased Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is providing energy for soil microbes, boosting their activity, supporting plant growth, and fostering beneficial soil fungi. This enriched environment enhances resilience to environmental stress and strengthens the food web. 🌱 As well as increased water holding capacity and drought resilience: each tonne of SOC added per hectare increases water retention, reducing runoff and erosion. 🌱 And other productivity (and profitability) benefits. Importantly - while we've project managed 92% of all ACCUs issued to date, we strongly believe that carbon credits should be viewed as a bonus for managing the ecology well.

    Soil’s importance to life on this planet cannot be overstated. The theme for today’s #WorldSoilDay is “Caring for Soils: Measure, Monitor, Manage”. Delighted to continue to promote this vital, life-sustaining resource as Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Friends of Soil. At a recent breakfast to mark World Soil Day at Australian Parliament House, SoilCRC PhD student Reuben Mah showed the audience his impressive Lab on a Chip, which allows farmers and researchers to test soil accurately and in real time instead of having to take samples to the laboratory for analysis, saving time and money. The device has already been tested in the field and displayed promising results.
